Born on the 29th of July in the year 1958, Cynthia Rowley is an American fashion designer. Rowley was thrown out of the junior year art show at SAIC due to her addition of wings in her design which was considered excessive.
During an interview with Chicago Tribune, Rowley said that when she was still a student at SAIC, her first collection was bought by Marshall Field’s. In 1981 she moved from Chicago to New York City with the help of the money she received by winning a SAIC fellowship award. She started her career with $3,000 which she got from one of her grandmother’s.
In 1988 she launched her first capsule collection and has since grown to include women’s wear, glasses, color cosmetics, handbags, fragrance, home furnishings, office accessories, and bedding products.
She was the co-author of a book series with her friend Ilene Rosenzweig which made its debut at Target in 2003. Based on the book series Rowley created a line of home accessories called Swell. Rowley’s fashions are displayed biyearly at New York Fashion Week. The New York Times expressed Rowley’s designs as “flirty, vibrantly colored dresses and tops in wispy materials” that have “a whiff of the carefree, simple spirit” of Claire McCardell.
